I tried loading this in student reviews then through the busking uploader but the sight was having none of it.
Anyway, camp got me motivated to improve on my right hand stuff. By the way, Neil played a bitchin' version the Clap at the Al Stewart show. Kinda forgot about Steve Howe before that. Anyway here is me attempting "Mood For A Day"

John, I watched it again and it is still great!!
Really dig your posts!!

Daryl, good to see you out and about...figuratively speaking.

At the risk of sounding greedy...I don't suppose BOTH or EITHER of u you guys could cook up something for Michelle & Lynn's Quasi Open Mic thread? It could use a little helpful nudge...and who better than the two of you. I mean it hasn't languished too long or anything I just thought either of you could really help with the inertia over there. :)

John,

So you have a classical guitar. Seeing you play so well makes me want one ... far freakin' out ! B)
... oh, do you actually have big hands, or maybe they just seem that way because everything else is small ?

John, This is great guitar playing. The ease that you have playing is quite impressive. I have worked at it for a long time and could never get those run downs to come anywhere near what you do, so it has been on the sleeper for a while now. I also like the vibratos that are inserted through out, so you are not rushing your hand. Playing it on the classical guitar makes an extra challenge because of the fret size and it does not seem to cause you any problem.

Very impressive

Marc

John- All I can say is WOW! I knew from camp that you are a very good player but had no idea you had that in you!! Anyone who takes on Steve Howe like that is my hero! Simply fantastic.

I don't have enough superlatives. Thanks for sharing!

Cheers! :cheer:

I always look forward to your guitar playing, it's just so good.
I saw your uploaded Mood for A day but left it for a moment when I'd appreciate it.

You play it so well, great job.
Sets the mood for the day !
